Front door materials: wood or fiberglass?

Your front door is the entry to your home—where life happens. A sharp front door makes a great first impression on all who enter or simply walk by.

It’s an indication of the unique style, design, and people they might find inside. You have several options when it comes to front door material, but what works best for your home? Let’s break down the two most popular materials.

Wood

Without a doubt, wood doors are stunning. Their exquisite texture and design perfectly complement the Pacific Northwest aesthetic. As a bonus, they match nearly any color palette found on your home, and can work with traditional, classic, or modern exteriors. Today’s wood doors offer ornate, yet energy efficient glass accents and beautiful mouldings.

Fiberglass

Fiberglass exterior doors offer homeowners the ultimate in durability and flexibility. They’re nearly maintenance free and have an impressive lifespan. Plus, Codel’s composite framework seals out moisture and provides premier insulation, which is good news for your energy bills.

Codel doors are available in both smooth and textured fiberglass. They can also be stained or painted again and again. Vibrant yellow, brick red, sleek black—your door can change as frequently as your style preferences!

WES has so many Codel fiberglass doors, we can’t even list them all here! Check out the full collection, the Rustic Collection, or our Mini Blind collection and find the perfect door for your unique home and style.
